Folk, Blues & Jazz
Before that famous moment when Bob Dylan plugged in his guitar and muddied the waters between folk and rock the division between the two was pretty clear. Now the distinction is a bit fuzzier. We include books about jazz, blues and ‘world music’ in this section and you might find the odd book about musical instruments or folk culture in a larger sense. This website is still (and will always be) a work in progress. New sections might appear. Comments and advise are welcome.
